The search for holy people in our communities goes beyond administration, classrooms, workshops, it is discovering the people who can mend broken lives back together, to heal individuals, families and the community itself so that we can lease the conflict, tension and pain. The essence of those learnings is already developed in a person, our job as indigenous people is to help them shine, enable them to be who they are, to call them to leadership and to recognize the authority God has given them. Going to school is a small part of this process. That would be too easy.
